Pennsylvania: Lancaster Passes Illegal Anti-Gun Ordinance

Wednesday, June 10, 2009

Please Stand-Up and Make Your Voices Heard!

Yesterday, the Lancaster City Council unanimously passed a proposal introduced by Mayor Richard Gray (D) that would require gun owners to report a lost or stolen firearm within a 72-hour period or face fines and possible imprisonment.  This law not only violates Pennsylvania’s state preemption laws, but it could make law-abiding victims into criminals for failing to report a lost or stolen firearm within 72-hours. 

According to the news report on LancasterOnline.com, the Mayor has said the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence will provide free legal counsel if lawsuits are levied on the city.

Please contact the members of the City Council and Mayor Gray TODAY and respectfully voice your disapproval with their passage of this illegal and unwarranted attack on law-abiding gun owners.  The City Council can be reached by phone at (717) 291-4785.  Email addresses for the City Council can be found below.  Mayor Gray can be contacted by phone at (717) 291-4701 or e-mail [email protected].
